Pretty in Pink movie
The movie “Pretty in Pink” was possibly one of the most popular movies of the 20th century, as well as one of the most popular teenage movies of all times. It is so popular it has a cult following, and it was also one of the movies which helped …
Spiderman 2
Spiderman 2 had a lot to live up to after the success of Spiderman 1. I personally loved the first Spiderman and was greatly anticipating the second installment. And after seeing it, while there are some great things about 2, I still believe the original Spiderman to …
Feature Film “Twilight Saga: Eclipse “
I just watched the movie Eclipse and I did really enjoy it. I have seen both of the other movies, and this is the best so far. I believe this is mostly because the budgets have gotten better and the actors have grown. Most of the …
Star Wars: Episode 3- Revenge of the Sith
OK, so I absolutely bashed the first two prequels in the series. And while Episode 3 does deserve some hate, it’s not near the level of hate I gave to the first two. Hayden Christiansen still can’t act and he and Natalies relationship is still one of …
The Holiday
After watching a bunch of ‘chick flicks’ I actually liked, I figured there would be no harm in renting The Holiday. Boy was I wrong.
This has got to be the longest, most boring film I’ve seen this year.
The movie is about two women, one American and one British, who …
“Drag Me To Hell” (2009 Film)
If you are in the mood for a scary movie to give you goose bumps and make you want to shut your eyes, then the 2009 film “Drag Me to Hell” is not for you. While the movie was a little creepy, it was also fairly pointless, leaving me …
The Wedding Crashers
The Wedding Crashers it a great movie! This movie was just great. Owen Wilson and Vince Vaugn did a great job of acting in this movie. I really liked the basic storyline. The Wedding Crashers is very funny because these two guys go around looking for girls at weddings they …

Come Back, Little Sheba movie
Come Back, Little Sheba is a classic black and white film made in 1952. When I first heard about this movie, I really thought Come Back, Little Sheba was about little more than a lost dog and his heartbroken owner. Come Back, Little Sheba is beautifully done, even though …
Raising Helen movie
Raising Helen was a movie which starred Kate Hudson, it about a woman whose sister unexpectedly dies in an accident with her husband, now she has to take care of his sister’s kids and juggle it with her demanding job and her temporary on hold fun life. At first …
Awake movie
I watched the movie awake yesterday. It kept me interested throughout the whole movie. I didn’t want to stop watching it for anything. The thought of “anesthetic awareness” to me is scary. To think that you are going into surgery and you are not fully asleep and can still …
Borat
Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan, directed by Larry Charles is rated R bythe Motion Picture Association of America for pervasive strong crude and sexual content including graphic nudity, and language. The original release date was November 3, 2006 for United States audience. …
Twilight movie
Twilight is my favorite movie. It is about a vampire who fell in love with a mortal. That is the conflict in the story because a vampire human relationship is prohibited. Even though the story is quite simple and it looks like another teeny movie. I am …
Under The Tuscan Sun movie
Under the Tuscan Sun is one of my favorite movies. I just adore Diane Lane but I think this is my favorite movie that she has made. Diane Lane plays Frances. Frances is going through a divorce in the very beginning of Under The Tuscan Sun and you can …
Just a Little Inconvenience movie
Just a Little Inconvenience isn’t the easiest movie to watch, but it is a powerful and potent film. From 1977, the movie stars Lee Majors and James Stacy. In real life, Stacy was involved in a motorcycle accident that resulted in the lost of an arm and …
Shoot ‘Em up
I like Clive Owen, he’s probably my favorite English actor, but I’ve seen him in this role before. In his incredibly great movie, Children Of Men, Owen plays a reluctant hero of sorts who needs to escort a pregnant woman to her rendevous point to have her baby without …
Avatar in Digital 3D
I wanted to write about Avatar while it’s still fresh in my mind. I watched it on December 24, 2009 for a hefty fee of $14.99 (that’s how much it costs to watch a full-blown digital 3D movie these days). On second thought, this cost is not …

Pirates of the Caribbean,Dead Man’s Chest
This movie had it all: action, adventure, humor and more! Ths movie told a good story, kept you entertained in the process and left you wanting more. Three of us ranging from 12-40 years old went and each one of us walked out saying the same thing; that was …
The Other Woman (movie)
I’m generally not a fan of what most people describe as “chick flicks”, but once in a very long while a movie might come along that I think I might enjoy. When I first saw the trailer for it some months ago, The Other Woman ended up being one …
The Love Guru movie
I enjoy a Mike Meyers movie now and then. He has not made a movie I really liked since Austin Powers but my Neflix list was empty and I decided to give this movie a try. It was about like any Mike Meyers or Jim Carrey movie. …
Fracture movie

Cape Fear (movie)
Cape Fear was one of those movies that I had absolute faith in even before I actually knew what it was about. First of all, it was supposed to have been directed by Martin Scorsese, and nothing usually beats that since most of his movies are thrilling and timeless. …
Moonrise Kingdom, movie (2012)
Wes Anderson, as a director, has a tendency to be too quirky for his own good. After two great films with Bottle Rocket and Rushmore, his films became inconsistent. I’m not a big fan of The Royal Tenenbaums. I highly enjoyed Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou. …
27 Dresses
Watching feel good and light story movies does make someone feel better, and often times feel good about themselves. I think 27 Dresses did that to me. Katherine Heigl is wonderful in her role and being the “always” bridesmaids suits her. With all the glamour and stuffs she has …
Plain Truth - Jodi Picoult

Must Love Dogs movie
We recently rented the DVD “Must Love Dogs,” starring Diane Lane and John Cusack. Or, I should say, my wife rented it.
This is definitely a roma-comedy, a chick flick, more appropriate to a girls nite with Ben & Jerry than to a nite with her husband.
There is some …
The Shaggy Dog (2006)
The Shaggy Dog, directed by Brian Robbins is Rated PG by the Motion Picture Association of America, and stars Tim Allen as Dave Douglas aka The Shaggy Dog and Robert Downey Jr as Dr. Kozak…the main characters.

Fanaa (movie) ,2006
At last today I watched this Aamir Khan starred movie Fanaa (Lol). This movie released on 26th of May 2006. I had my University exams from 23rd of May 2006 so I could not even dream of watching this movie at that time. This film is produced by Yashraj …

The Skulls movie
I think The Skulls was a pretty good movie. The movie is about a secret society called The Skulls. I guess they are trying to portray and real life secret society called Skull and Bones. I think the movie was very well done. It shows both the good and dark …
The Messengers
The Messengers is just a lame, dull, boring story that I have seen played in movies countless times before. I don’t understand why they should make a horror movie as such. If I am to be a Director, and I decide to make a horror movie, I …
Train Ride (R, 2000)
There are fleeting moments of competency in this late 90’s film—the last to feature actress Esther Rolle before her death in the same year (1998.) The story itself is quite feasible. A group of college guys have three freshman girls over hoping to get …
The Pirates Who Don’t Do Anything (2008)

Godzilla, King of the Monsters DVD
At long last, an uncut, unedited version of 1954’s Godzilla, King of the Monsters has finally appeared on home video in an English subtitled version. When originally released, the film was hack edited and included the silly Rayond Burr footage in order to make the film more acceptable …
Rat Race movie
This is a hillarious lesser-known movie about a race to get 2 million dollars. I had never even heard of this movie until a friend brought it into work one night. I had stomach pains by the time it was over from laughing so hard.
It has an amazing cast: …
Brothers movie
Note: This review contains spoilers!
“Brothers”, starring Tobey Maguire, Jake Gyllenhaal, and Natalie Portman is a movie that suffers from bad marketing. When I saw the trailer for it, I was expecting a psychological thriller, and instead found the movie to be more of a run of the mill drama. …
Movie: “Mindhunters”
I can’t recommend “Mindhunters” passionately enough: it’s so much more than just action; it’s a deep psychological thriller that will have you guessing at every turn.
Rather than just introducing mindless FBI drones, the movie presents a cast of rich characters, all with their own strengths and frailties. They are …
Ice Age 2 movie
Ice Age 2: Melt Down is a great, new movie for everyone! It is the sequel to Ice Age and follows the same characters: Diego (the sabertooth tiger), Manny (the wooly mammoth), Sid (the megalonyx –related to the three toed sloth) and of course Scrat (the saber toothed squirrel). …
